Closer Relationship with the Lwa

I’ve practiced Feng Shui for over 15 years and recently I was gifted with advanced training, which has prompted me to take another look at my altar room.

One simple thing you can do, even if you don’t know anything about Feng Shui, is move your altar, or set it up, in the southwest area of your home. If you’re using one room, or don’t have a compass, you can use the right rear corner of the room. This is your relationship direction. If you know Feng Shui, and know your personal best directions, you can set up the altar in your personal relationship direction – for example, my personal relationship direction is West.

Do you want a closer relationship with your Met Tet, or any of the Lwa? Set up their altar in this direction with the intention of getting to know them better. This will help you deepen and strengthen your relationship with that particular Lwa. This is the perfect time to set up an altar for Erzulie Freda (if you don’t already have one); you can get to know her better, sit with her and cry together, ask her to help you with a particular relationship, work with her to learn to love her even more, or learn to love yourself again. Putting an altar to Erzulie in your Relationship corner will enhance any relationship work you do with her.
